Did this really only come out 5 years ago? 2017 is a whole other universe away, isn't it? Anyway, I bought this a long time ago when the ebook was on sale, but I'm only just now getting to it. A few of the authors, I don't care for as people (and one, I hated one of his books so much that I contemplated skipping his essay), but I read every one. And what do you know, those essays were among the weaker ones in the book!
Other than those exceptions, this is a really good look at what other works have inspired a lot of really great writers, and they have plenty of interesting and useful things to say.
